If they are making you sick it sounds like they are migraines. Try taking something like Migralieve (sp?) to see if it makes a difference !?
Sorry not much help, im prone to headaches too and the only way to get rid of mine is to have some Anadin and go lie down. Obviously can only do this when OH is home as like you said its hard work looking afters LOs when your not feeling well.
Also there is stuff you can get called "4head" which is basically a stick you rub on your forehead to numb the pain. I have found it effective but only if you do it right at the start when you feel the headache coming on.
